Progress...er, not so much.

Okay, I have to be honest. Pages written? 0. Words written? 0. Someone slap me? Oh wait, my sister already did that. Okay. 7,500 words before I can read my books that are NOW on the way. They are going to taunt me with their fabulously designed book covers. Got to get to work!

My 1st Challenge

Okay, so I need to put some words on paper. Motivation? Well, amazon.com is mailing me both Lauren Kate's Torment (http://laurenkatebooks.net/) and Becca Fitzpatrick's Crescendo (http://beccafitzpatrick.com/) by the end of October. As motivation, I will not let myself read either book until I have at least written 10,000 more words. Books in hand or not. No 10,000 words=no reading. Ouch. If I start posting about how fabulous the books are before I have gotten to 42,000 words... I give you permission to virtually slap me. Tough love. Okey Dokey. Here goes!
